in fact, better fathers are less likely to divorce. Marriage is extremely difficult: the men who endure miserable marriages in order to remain in the home and act as a fulltime father have a very large influence that those who are not physically with the children do not.

Amen to your post. I used to marvel at one of my male relatives who was married to a grouchy, irritable, self-involved and sexually cold woman who never had a kind word. But his kids adored him and drew strength from him. He sacrificed because he lost his own father when he was young, and knew the value. All his children, regardless of the trials in their lives, made a living and never came begging for handouts, married decent spouses and raised good children of their own.

This is not a popular idea. Even some conservatives use the asinine phrase, “ quality time”. No such thing.
